Macintosh® Netscape® Custom Installation Instructions

For Macintosh
 For Microsoft® Windows®

Overview

The following Custom Install Instructions are for existing Qwest.net subscribers who have previously installed their Qwest.net account onto a computer using Qwest.net CD.

Since you're already a Qwest.net subscriber, you were sent a CD. You will need to install Netscape® Communicator™ from the CD. Instead of choosing the Typical install, you will be choosing Custom install.

This will allow your Qwest.net account information to remain unchanged, but enable you to have the same user account information on both computers, or just on your new computer.

The Custom Install instructions are different for Macintosh users than for Microsoft Windows 95/98 and Windows NT® users. Both sets of instructions are included here. You may want to print the instructions before loading the Custom Install version of Netscape from your Qwest.net CD.

Remember to print the custom install instructions for the operating system of the computer you will be installing Netscape on. It may not be the same as your current computer.

1. Uninstall Netscape and FreePPP.
   
   If you are dialing into another server or ISP, you will need to make note of the information that is currently in FreePPP to reconfigure at a later time.
   
   NOTE: To make a copy, you can take a screen shot of the FreePPP configuration [caps lock + option + shift + 4], which will be saved on your computer as a file called 'pic 1'. Just double-click on the PIC 1 file and print it.
